A study on risk management for software engineering
Luanna Lopes Lobato, Pedro A. Neto, I. do Carmo Machado · 2012
Explicit Risk Management (RM) in Software Product Lines Engineering (SPL) is considered an open question, as posed in literature, and confirmed by industrial practices, unlike Single System Development (SSD), which contains a large set of evidence. The goal of this research is to synthesize the available evidence gathered in previous research, in a form of two scoping studies, which considered RM in SPL and SSD, using the narrative synthesis method. Through the synthesis we could identify common risks to both development paradigm, as well as RM activities and practices most commonly used to apply RM in projects. In addition, was observed that RM to SPL is still an open question if compared to SSD.
